A new outfit and haircut for Mayazar Hashurai going in to our campaign's next storyline. Trying out some new stuff still. It feels like forever since I've done any drawing, so I'm glad to finally get some more work done.

I like etymology

[xanaxfarts]

Sacro Bosco (Sacred Grove), Gardens of Bomarzo, Italy; the words Lasciate ogni pensiero voi ch entrate (Abandon all reason, you who enter here) are inscribed on the Orcus Mouth of Hell.

Gods freaking out over Nico di Angelo [pt. 19]

Orcus,taking care of a barely 2 years old Nico,grumply: I don't know why our Lord thought I would be fitted for this. This is all Thanato's fault,he should have cleared his schedule fast enough.

Baby Nico looking at him with big watery eyes: P-pa–

Orcus: Wait,you can talk!? I didn't know you could do that!

Baby Nico,focusing on moving his lips for what he wants to do: P-pa–p–

Orcus waiting for him: You can do it,take your time....I guess.

Baby Nico: P-pa–pap–.....Papà!

Orcus: Aww you said your first word! How adorable disturbing you are! Lord Hades will be proud of you once he finds out.

Baby Nico doing grabby hands at him: Papà,papà!

Orcus,poiting at himself: Me? Your....papà?

Baby Nico nodding happily and doing grabby hands at him again: Papà!

Orcus,feeling the dread in his body:.....Oh Shit- No little human being,I'm not your papà. Lord Hades is your papà.

Baby Nico watching him not understanding: Papà? Papà!

Orcus,panicking: No! No papà! Lord Hades papà,me no papà.

Baby Nico watching him silently:

Orcus: You understand now?

Baby Nico:.....Papà!

Orcus,fully panicking now: NO! NO PAPÀ! I'm not papà,why am I papà? Papà is Lord Hades little human being. Not me. If he finds out you called me that and think I'm your dad he will skin me alive. You can't do that to me! And– why the hell am I talking to a baby for this? I get why Thanatos didn't want to take care of you now.

Hades,taking baby Nico in his arms: Did my infant son cause you any form of problems?

Orcus,sweating: What? Noooo. The little princeling was an angel. Everything went fine.

Hades,watching him acting strange:

Orcus: Well,then,I still need to do a lot of things in my schedule. Have a nice day,my Lord,little princeling.

Hades looking at Orcus vanishing on the spot: He was acting weird,wasn't he Nico?

Baby Nico:....Papà!

Hades: OH MY ME! YOU TALKED! NICO YOU SAID YOUR FIRST WORD! And it was papà! I'm so proud of you little one.

Baby Nico being happy: Papà,papà,papà!

Mewhile Orcus in his own cave: Fuck,never again. I don't want to do this shit again in my current immortal life. It's more dangerous than going to Tartarus,that child is a demon! He was attempting to kill me on the spot!

In some versions Hades is considered the master of the goddesses of Fate, not his brother Zeus and the god who designates the end and origin of all things and orders the alternation of birth and destruction, the arbiter of life and death.

In setting up my home office, I made sure that anyone standing in the doorway would be stared down by the Eye of Vecna, the Wand of Orcus, and Vincent Price.

For your “Suggest a Sketch” consideration! But only if you want to! I just know we both love him 🫶

Feathers? Paws? A beak?? So many tricky things!

But for you? For Orcus??

Of course. 😁
